Being self-employed as a consultant is great – it gives me the flexibility to choose when I work and to spend as much time as I like on a particular project.

Working full-time completing residential and Home Medicines Reviews, educating aged-care staff and community groups, auditing aged-care homes and developing online resources keeps me very busy.

I really enjoy education, counselling and helping to solve drug-related problems. Most of my work is in aged care, and I have a particular interest in respiratory diseases and mental health.
